This Night Owl Blog has given so much!
It is a fun place, we don't bash and we have fun being "tedious"!
We offer advice, give love, lots of free food and an open forum which can be about anything that is important, thought provoking or just plain silly.
And sometimes we just March (some to different drummers, but all together). :)
It is not about a single person, it is about all the people on any given day blended together.....Goldie!

Shirley & Marcy

by Sac Barb

A mother was concerned about her kindergarten son walking to school. He didn't want his mother to walk with him. She wanted to give him the feeling that he had some independence but yet know that he was safe.So she had an idea of how to handle it.

She asked a neighbour if she would please follow him to school in the mornings, staying at a distance, so he wouldn't notice her.The neighbor said that since she was up early with her toddler anyway, it would be a good way for them to get some exercise as well, so she agreed.

The next school day, the neighbour and her little girl set out following behind Timmy as he walked to schoolwith another neighbor girl he knew. She did this for the whole week.

As the two walked and chatted, kicking stones and twigs, Timmy 's little friend noticed the same lady was following them as she seemed to do every day all week. Finally she said to Timmy , 'Have you noticed that lady following us to school all week? Do you know her?' Timmy nonchalantly replied, 'Yeah, I know who she is.'The little girl said, 'Well, who is she?''That's just Shirley Goodnest ,' Timmy replied, 'and her daughter Marcy.'

'Shirley Goodnest? Who is she and why is she following us?'
'Well,' Timmy explained, 'every night my Mum makes me say the 23rd Psalm with my prayers, 'cuz she worries about me so much. And in the Psalm, it says, 'Shirley Goodnest and Marcy shall follow me all the days of my life', so I guess I'll just have to get used to it!'

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you, and be gracious unto you; the Lord lift His countenance upon you, and give you peace.

Happy 28th Goldie....have fun and watch out for republicans...I read they are going to be swarming this weekend...and you don't want to get stung by one of those!! I hear the sting makes you crazy and want to open fire on an Planned Parenthood Establishment!! Or your eyes could start rolling independently of each other like Michelle Bachman!!

Tina has good taste in sofas....wait! before I tell you where that sofa was. Were you being sarcastic or do you really like it?

Ok Bebbi....I miss her a little tiny tiny bit....and I would accept her apology...I mean after all...shes a woman...and yall are wired so many ways anything should be expected and not a surprise.....from crazy to craziest...all the way to monsterville....

Michael: I have to agree..women are wired funny! :) Of course, on the other hand, men are quite easy to figure out and not wired funny attall... completely normal, completely logical, and always with foot in mouth (or elsewhere)...he he.

That photo was taken at the Mark Hopkins Hotel in San Francisco...I was minding my own business that morning and saw this good looking guy and innocently asked if he knew the way to San Jose....

WELL!! He started singing his answer...as he gently sat me on that sofa and proceeded to get almost close enough to kiss me then he pulled me up from the sofa...one of those orchestras that you can't see started to play...he spun me around and that began a romantic and very sexually choreographed version of Burt Bacharachs hit song!!At the end...cut to doorway...and you would see us happily leaving for San Jose but alas...it wasn't to be...

The police were there and they arrested us and took us to homo jail!

Seems its was "No Song and Dance Reenactments in Public" week in San Francisco....they have many rules and regulations such as this and because of the large gay population they must be strictly enforced...

its essential so that the tourist don't get too much of a particular thing in one day when visiting the city by the bay....

It came about years ago when a Midwestern man and his wife were visiting and they had seen a lot of the same thing all day long and the husband remarked "if I see one more perfectly choreographed song and dance routine today I am going to just croak".....

Michael You and Bebbilicious have really been cracking me up today. I know live by San Francisco but when I was in high school in SoCal my art teacher, Mr. Moye, would come up to SF and go "honking". I can only imagine what that term might mean. Any ideas?

Dianne Sounds like you have a very nice weekend planned. We have rain on the way. My granddaughter is home now but it seems she has a mild case of Chicken Pox. Good thing I already had it as a kid since she was sleeping in my bed the other day.

Many people who are legally "deaf" can hear very limited frequency ranges, so their vocal patterns formed around the frequencies they were able to distinguish as a kid. Their speech sounds muted and does not contain details such as the sharpness of a hard "j" or "s" for example. The flat sound of this speech is usually referred to as honking since that's what it sounds like._________

I slso ran across something I had forgotten...A Tony Danza...omg!! I can't tell you here what a Tony Danza is but you can look it up...lol

Michael No, he wasn't deaf. He acted rather "upper crust" but loved to hear all the gossip. At the time, I thought it meant going out for drinks and maybe it does. I never thought about his sexuality but it is now obvious, in retrospect, that he was gay so maybe there is a totally different meaning.
